Lib Dems Marriage Without Borders petition

With thanks to diffrentcolours:

I'd just like to promote a new campaign by Nick Clegg and LGBT Lib Dems calling for Marriage Without Borders - removing the gender restrictions on marriages and civil partnerships, and improving international recognition of same-sex relationships.

Please sign the petition; if you're on Facebook you can become a fan, but do make sure you sign as well - and pimp it to your friends! Get HTML code to copy and paste!

Thanks! Yes, I definitely don't envy queer people living in Italy. I've noticed on my own visits that things like same-sex hand-holding can pass without comment there because that sort of contact is more normal between friends in Italy than it is here in the UK. But if anyone suspects that there is more to it than friendship, it becomes quite a different story.

Thanks, that's very interesting. Mind you, I wouldn't want to imply that there aren't plenty of people in the UK capable of being just as narrow-minded about it. But I can certainly see that the Catholic context provides an easy avenue for it.
